Market highlights

May 21, 2011
Sick of all the market talk yet?  Me too.  But here’s some more…
During set up:
The first day with V (if you can’t tell I am really tall…and V is really short small):
Crashing the Riley Blake party with this crazy bunch (so..much…fun):
American Jane:
And more friends (photo taken by Sandi Klop herself):
Overall I had a great first market experience.  It’s always scary to put myself out there…but once I strapped on my big girl panties and went for it I was fine.   The best part was meeting all of these great blog friends face to face…the rest was just a perk.

    Hi the market highlights look great.Your stand looks fab, so bright and inviting. I wish we had shows like that here in Ireland but Unfortunately we don't. I could only see two craft shows happening here April and November. There seems to be a huge variety there at the market. Looks so cool :)

    I love when bloggers and quilters share their market experience! I can't attend, so I can enjoy for the view of your camera!

    Hi Allison.

    I'm glad you had some good days on the market and have seen their friends. These things make a good day even better.

    I agree with everyone… the booth looked awesome. That red lamp is super fun! You standing next to your short friend reminds me of me (short…errr..small) and my best sewing friend (tall).

    your booth was so cute. I enjoyed saying hi to you but didn't stop to talk. I took so many pictures I think I could blog for a year on market. I think my readers are afraid I might.
